Our Soul’s Lens

Herb Cohen Author Interview

Unveiled: A Journey to Soul Realization is part memoir, part spiritual roadmap, and part therapeutic manual that weaves together personal stories, neuroscience, energy work, and metaphysical exploration into one cohesive, soul-centered narrative. Why was this an important book for you to write?

In my trauma practice, I work to help people realize what happened to them was not arbitrary but happened for a reason and has meaning. This was the reason for writing this book as well. We can learn from meaning and create new meaning. This is a powerful function of Unveiled.

I appreciated the neuroscience you incorporated into this book rather than just presenting spiritual information; the combination makes it easier to trust the process. Did you find anything in your research for this book that surprised you?

No, I this is basic to trauma therapists. Trauma therapy evolved with the simultaneous evolution of neuroimaging; thus, the practices being developed could be visually measured and understood, accounting for rapid brain changing therapies we do not see in mental health nor addiction.

What were some ideas that were important for you to share in this book?

Placebo as both miraculous and as what we can do with deliberate meaning change. I discuss our need for evidence and Placebo studies provide that in dramatic and stunning ways. The Self-Healing approaches take that idea of what is possible and plug in applications that are amazing. Of course, this book’s goal is to see through our Soul’s lens and Soul connection is perhaps the pinnacle moment in this text.

How has your experience in the mental health field helped you develop this process for healing and awakening?

Yes, my practice and my ascension evolved as one, energetically and that was amazing. My clients presented things I need to learn, not only as a trauma practitioner but as a spiritual practitioner as well. It was and still is an amazing synergy.

Why we see the world through certain lenses
How to connect to your soul and be guided by the essence of who you are
How to surrender to self-heal

The goal of this book is to take you on a spiritual journey from trauma or atrocity to one of love and bliss.

Unveiled, A Journey to Soul Realization

Herb Cohen’s Unveiled: A Journey to Soul Realization is part memoir, part spiritual roadmap, and part therapeutic manual. It weaves together personal stories, neuroscience, energy work, and metaphysical exploration into one cohesive, soul-centered narrative. The book begins with Cohen’s background as a trauma therapist and gradually unfolds into a layered study of consciousness, ego, and the soul. Through detailed examples from his practice, he connects emotional pain and trauma to spiritual evolution. He invites readers to step beyond intellectual understanding and instead experience transformation through awareness, energy, and love. The book blends science and spirituality, often questioning what we believe to be possible while presenting exercises for emotional healing and personal awakening.

The writing has a rhythm that’s equal parts therapy session and spiritual transmission. Cohen’s approach is brave, at times raw, and occasionally unconventional. He doesn’t shy away from merging clinical insight with mystical belief, and that tension between grounded psychology and ethereal spirituality makes the book compelling. I found myself pulled in by his metaphors, especially his “rancid food” analogy for emotional pain. It’s simple and unforgettable. The science sections can get dense, yet they serve a purpose. They anchor the spiritual claims in something familiar, and that balance keeps the material from floating too far into abstraction.

What struck me most, though, was that Cohen’s idea of “unveiling” isn’t only about peeling back old layers over time, but about reaching a single, electrifying moment when the soul is revealed in its fullness. Through his Flow technique and compassionate guidance, he describes how the shift happens all at once, the veil lifts, and in that instant, everything feels wide open, limitless, and vividly alive. It’s not a slow climb toward realization but a sudden, breathtaking recognition of who we truly are. That moment, he says, is available to anyone willing to surrender and allow Flow to move through them, and reading his account made me feel the rush of that possibility.

The book ranges from trauma recovery to near-death experiences, from energy work to quantum consciousness. At times, it reads more like a collection of awakenings. Cohen’s voice carries humility and warmth, and his belief in human potential feels genuine. The way he talks about awareness, about simply noticing, resonated with me. There’s a sense of relief in his words, a reminder that maybe we don’t need to fix ourselves as much as we need to see ourselves clearly.

I’d recommend this book to anyone standing at the edge of their own transformation, therapists, healers, or anyone who’s tired of looping through the same pain and wants to see meaning in it. It’s not light reading. It asks you to think, to feel, and to let go of what you think you know. But if you’re ready for that kind of journey, Unveiled offers a heartfelt and practical guide to becoming whole.
